Alarm going off randomly

I have a 2009 scirocco tdi that I've had from new and the alarm goes off randomly, sometimes twice a day or once a week. The computer says H12 Alarm Horn, but also interior sensor.

Re: Clutch pedal vibration

I took it back to the dealers who replaced the clutch and flywheel under warrenty but after a week it feels the same. It is noticable when changing gear. The dealer now sa...
